Star Trek: The Next Generation page 2
Commander Riker from Generations.  I wasn't happy with the version Playmates put out.  First of all it was called Thomas Riker and he was way too short.  So once the Voyager bodies came out I was in good shape to make Riker the way I wanted.  The only part left over from the initial Playmate figure are the lower arms.
Data from Generations.  Same deal as with Riker.  When the superior Voyager bodies came out, this figure begged to be remade.  I used the Data head and his lower arms on a Voyager body.  Pretty easy custom.  I then repainted the face.
Geordi from Generations.  Not much to say here, very easy custom.
Picard from First Contact.  I was dissapointed when I heard that Playmates was going to make all of their figures for First Contact in 6" scale.  I used sculpey on the shoulders and created the ribbed effect of the uniforms and added the neck zipper as well.  About 2 years later Target came out with their exclusive series of figures.
Here is a closeup of my First Contact Picard.  I used the same method to age the face as I did with my classic movie figures.  The detail doesn't show up as nicely as I would of liked, so I will probably be re-scanning this figure in the future.
